FOREIGN EVENTS.

BoULANGER has written a letter to Dep
usy Laur, thanking him for his expressions
of attachment and friendship, which he
says are becoming rare. Continuing, the
letter says the writer, will do his duty, de-
spite the hatred and detection of former
friends, sufficient for him to remain friends
swith thnss nh = wish Fsanee 10 be respect-
ed and who place their country above
party intrieues. He himself has but one
aim 10 proclaim TO Frenchmen: They can
and must raise their heads and assume the
only attitude becoming a great people.
The letter caused n sensation III the depu-
ties. 1t is reported the general will be
called to account for ii.
NEWS from native sources has been re-
ceiyed at Bombay to the effect that n bat
tie between troops of the Ameer of Afghan
istan and insurgents recently took place at
Mashaki, south of Guzuia and the Ameer's
forces were victorious. They are said to
have captured 16O Andars and Taraki and
have sent the heads of 200 ; lain to Cabal.
A large force of Jagburi and Ehazarohs
subsequently defeated the troops of the
Ameer, who has sent reinforcements to his
army.
The st. Lawrence (Canada) sugar re-
fnery was totally destroyed by fire the
other morning. One man was killed and
two others fatally injured by jumping
from windows.
A PARIS dispatch of the 14th says Thus
far the fall of the Bastile has been COM
memorated with quiet and decorous
demonstration m sde at the statue of Stras-
burg, but it was of an entirely peaceful
nature. The members of the patriotic
league and other associations with banners
and trumpeters marched past the statue
and deposited upon it a colossal memoir
ial crown. As this was done there were q
few cries from the procession of ''Vlve Ia
France" "Vive la Republique' and "yive
la Boulanger," but there were no attempts
nj disorder.
A TERRIBLE conf grafton has visited
Witepsk, in northern Russia, destroying
Alb dwelling and business houses, the police
Office, six school houses and bank.
Thousands of persons are rendered home-
less and many lost their lives in their ef-
forts to escape the flames. The loss is
estimated at 2,00O,0O0 roubles.

AT THE SOUTH.

A PROFOUND sensation was produced
recently at Galveston, Texas, when it be-
came known that the old and we'll known
firm of Kaufman & Runge had assigned
in favor of Mrs. Kaufman. The assign
ment was caused by the unfortunate spec
ulations of Julius hung, the senior mem
Der, in cotton. No statement of the assets
and liabilities has been made.
In n joint discussion at Millborn, Tex,
between prohibitionist and an anti-pro-
hibitionist, the latter responded TO the ar
gument of his adversary with a bullet. As
the ball missed its mark, the honors Of the
evening rested entirely with the cold water
man.
The town of Nogales, Arizona, was
badly dam aged by cloud burst recently.
In Sonora, Mexico, few miles distAnt, d
number of houses were washed away and
one child drowned.
BENSON, A. T., telegram says that
heavy ra us for the past few days caused
serious wash outs on the New Mexico and
Sonora railroads. The water has run
down from the mountains in n large vol
ume, drowning considerable stock in the
valley. Cattlemen, however, feel jubilant
over the heavy rainfall, which will insure
good ed next fall and winter.
CAPTAIN JAMES YATES, of Cross Plains,
Tenn, was shot and mortally wounded at
that place recently by DR.. J. I. w. Taylor,
also resident of the same town, who used
a double-barreled shotgun heavily loaded
with buckshot, the shot taking effect in
Yates face and breast. The tragedy was
the result of an old feud. When meeting
the two men exchanged words. Yates
leveled his revolver across his wrist but
the weapon could not be discharged, where
upon Taylor emptied the contents of both
barrels of his gun into Yates body. Both
Yates and Taylor were regarded as quiet
citizens, and the shooting created great ex-
citement. Bad feeling had existed between
the two for several years on account of
lawsuits connected with Neophagen college
property.
Mr.. LOUIS j. WoRTHAM, inspector Of
customs at Laredo, Texas, seized 800 head
of mares belonging to Messrs. Van Meter
& Brown, proprletors of the Buena Vista
ranch, in McMullen county. The animals
were imported from Mexico through the
Laredo custom house IN two separate lots,
the first importation having been made in
February, 1856, and the second in Febru-
ary of this year. At the time of importa-
ton, in order to avoid the payment OF duty
the required affidavit was made in usual
form, stating that the mares were being
imported for Breeding purposes on the
ranch of the party importing them.

IN the school elections at Salt Lake

Morris, daughter Of the late Z. J. Morris,
ex-United States minister to Turkey.
They were united IN marriage at Camden,

ed to Dublin per steamer Brittanic the
o her day. taking with him as a result of
SIX weeks work in America orders to the
value of S2oo,00n. He could have taken
almost doubie the amount named, but
doubted the ability of the mills now in op-
Grafton in Ireland to satisfactorily fill the
orders at present.
SOME time ago John II. Oliver, justice
of the peace in the district of Columbia,
was removed by the president. Oliver re-
fused 10 surrender the office, on the ground
that the law conferred the power of re-
moval exclus vely upon the supreme court

agninst Magistrate Oliver.
ATa meeting of several thousand friends
of McGynn held at Irving hall, New
York, the excommunicated priest spoke rs
follows: "Onr God is merciful as well
as q wise one. He will never condemn any
being who follows the dictates Of his con-
science, even be that conscience an erring
one. In obeying it he is forever obeyny
the Will Of God, as is a dogma of the
Catholic faith and according to all Chris
tian philosophy and teaching the man who
goes aga nst his conscience sins against
the Holy Ghost; and despite the power
OF any authority, even the Pope, If a man
does or says anything in obedience to that
power, If so doing he goes against his con-
science, be sins, Even il high Roman
tribunal summons man before them for
teaching the truth which he knows 10 exist,
and If that tribunal should condemn his
doctrine without giving him trial, and
command him to retract them, it is his
duty before God TO refuse to do SO. And
if il was in his power, as it at one time
was, but, thank God, no longer is, to inn
prison and martyr the truth in the person
OF those who have read Gods word in no,
ture before they have been able to see it,
should they summon him and command
him 10 correct under the penalty Of inn
prisonment or martyrdom, it is his duty to
resist, and even be burned alive at the stake
rather than commit the objectionable sin
gainst the Holy Ghost OF declaring what
his conscience believed TO be false.

ELK POINT UNION COUNTY DIKoTA WEDNESDAY JULY

from Des Moines Rapids to the mouth OF
the Illinois river. After describing the
dredging operations of year and their
effect, Capt. Puffner says: The general
result Of the work on this part Of the rver
during the past nine years is not encour-
aging. The river is SO large that the
money appropriated is not enough to
build the works contracted in sufficient
numbers to control the river to such de-
gree as to enable an engineer TO predict
what the final result would be in the depth
Of the channel. AT many places good has
been done, chiefly by limiting the number
of channels or by compelling the river ut
low water to run through such narrow
bed that the navigable channel cannot
shift to any great extent. At other places
troublesome bars have been removed and
brought to semi-permanent position,
where they are out OF the way. Erosion
has been largely controlled and the move
ments of islands is less, md the banks are
caving to less degree than formerly. The
sum appropriated by congress, which has
leen on an average less than 500, 900 q
year, is not enough to carry on with sue.
cess permanent improvement. 1t would
be better to alter the plan of the work than
to pretend to. continna In the present
course.
WILLIAM BANNING, boy Of fourteen
years, attempted to get on board of NOV
ing train at David City, Neb., recently.
He climbed on to the coupling, it being a
freight train, fell under and was badly IN
jured. The right leg was cut off at the
thigh, and the left foot cut off at the in
step. His recovery is doubtful.
AN Ainsworth, Neb., dispatch, says: It
is still dry and windy in this locality. Small
grain will not pay for cutting in the major
ity of cases, and farmers have almost
given up hope of q ccrn crop, as it is be-
ginning TO lose color and ''curl." rain
would be Godsend, but it must come
within week. The dry region extends
west as far as heard from and some thirty
miles east.
CURIOUS discovery was mode recently
at Des Moines, Ia, by q gentleman living
on east Ninth street, which is worthy of
the consideration of scientists. While en-
gagged chopping huge block OF ice he
noticed imbedded in its very center black
object, which appeared to be small stick.
Upon breaking the ice at that point. how
ever, it was found to be q worm three inches
long, encircled with yellow rings. When
exposed to the sun it lay dormant for
awhile, and then crawled off greatly to the
surprise of the ne'ghbors who had gathered
around. No record OF the existence of an
''ice worm" is to be fonnd and the owner
OF this specimen is waiting for enlighten-
ment on the subject of his discovery.
